An expense reporting application is a desktop or web application that enables users to create expense reports for travel expenses. The app typically includes the ability to upload receipts, select business categories for each receipt, and attach notes with more information about each receipt's purchase. Some apps also include advanced features such as automated expense tracking, which allows users to track their spending habits over time by adding new receipts through the app.

Expense reporting apps are often used by the same users who use expense management apps, travel management apps, and bill payment apps. Some of the most popular expense reporting apps include Expensify, MileIQ, Concur, and Cover.

An expense reporting app can increase its user base by providing a simple and easy-to-use app that makes it easy to track business expenses. In addition to creating a great app, expense reporting apps need to make sure that they have a large pool of users in their target market. A good way to achieve this is by creating a referral program for existing users.

An expense reporting app faces legal risks associated with the storage of sensitive personal financial information, as well as security risks from data breaches. Expense reporting apps should ensure that they anonymize any personally identifiable information before storing it in a backend database.
